JFK 08/03/2012 - Interjet

Went out to see if I could grab a frame or two of the new Interjet service to JFK

Flight AIJ2992 comes in late in the evening. Tonight it arrived around 11:15pm EDT

It is VERY DARK on the taxiways at JFK as I have said before :tongue: This was shot at f/2.8 @ ISO 25600 as she was mving very fast. As it is, it is at 1/125th sec and is still slightly motion blurred.

I was too tired to wait until all the trucks departed so I only snapped one at the gate. Turkish 77W was near it and the APU ruined any opportunity for a clean shot

The outbound flight, AIJ2993, is around 7:45AM Mon-Fri and 10:30am Sat-Sun

Great grab on the new service Manny

Hey thanks Rich! Like an idiot I forgot about it... I may have been able to get the departure on Friday morning or even Thursday night's arrival :P

Nicely done. Ithinki heard the departure on the liveATC ap this morning possibly. There was one I hadn't heard before and they might have said interjet. Looking fwd to seeing it in person.

Well done Sir Manny. I would have tried to catch but have been too too busy getting my mom's ready for an Open House this coming Sunday.

It was funny to hear the tower controller last night trip up on the call sign...
